I dont need any third party to validate my belief. If Morufat abandons Islam, that's her problem. I don't outsource my thinking.

Jarus:


Exactly my thought. I was about completing reading the apologetic posts up here and make my comments. If anyone converts to Christianity, that's his business, I'm not apologetic at all.

For me the difference between Islam and Christianity is so clear that I think only a fool will leave Islam for Christianity (may
Allah save us from shaytan)

AlBaqir:


That shows how you care less about Islam or its progress in this society. Majority of the Muslims today never become Muslims via conviction. Majority were born into it and by default you do not expect them to have any real interest in the religion. Situation is worse in predominantly Muslim countries where it is synonymous to cultural practice.

# Something is wrong with "the Islam of this society". Like I posted the other time:

In 1929, there were only 15 million Christians in the whole of Africa. And the continent was overwhelmingly dominated by Muslims. Today, there are 520 million Christians and the continent is dominated by Christians.

Just 40 years ago in Nigeria, Muslims were 70% of the population. Today, we are only 50%

A concern Muslim should be very worry about this, dig the root causes and proffer solutions.

Jarus:


You ain't talking to illiterates.

1 What is the source of your stats up there?
2, What was the population of Africa in 1929?
3, It I not true that Christians dominate Africa now.

Nothing has changed. The Muslim territories remain strong, so do the Christian territories.

Muslim has always dominated North Africa, it still does.

Christianity has always dominated southern Africa, it still does.

West Africa has always been Muslim dominated northern hinterland and Christian dominated South coastal areas. It still is.

East Africa has always been Christian dominated with large population of Muslims, it still is.

And there are hundreds or thousands of conversions here and there, but it never altered the distribution.

You're not talking to illiterates please.

Jarus:
According to world book of encyclopedia, Islam us still the most practised religion in Africa.

AlBaqir:


# This is what "World book of encyclopedia" says according to wikipedia:

The World Book Encyclopedia has estimated that in 2002
Christians formed 40% of the continent's population, with
Muslims forming 45%. It was also estimated in 2002 that
Christians form 45% of Africa's population, with Muslims
forming 40.6%.

And this is accredited to Encyclopedia Britannica:

Encyclopædia Britannica. Britannica Book of the
Year 2003. Encyclopædia Britannica, (2003) ISBN
9780852299562 p.306

According to the Encyclopædia Britannica, as of
mid-2002, there were 376,453,000 Christians,
329,869,000 Muslims and 98,734,000 people who
practiced traditional religions in Africa. Ian S. Markham,
(A World Religions Reader. Cambridge, MA: Blackwell
Publishers, 1996.) is cited by Morehouse University as
giving the mid-1990s figure of 278,250,800 Muslims in
Africa, but still as 40.8% of the total.

A religion whose preaching focuses on hereafter versus one whose teaching focuses on this life? A religion that has something to say about every activity, including how to enter toilet versus one whose mode of worship is not even prescribed but left to anyone to do as he wishes. Islam is tougher to practice and that's another validation. Ain't exams hard? Do goodvthings come easy? You need to work and sweat for it. Islam is not merriment.

The proofs of authenticity of Islam are just too glaring that I don't take serious stories of con3conversion by any Muslim.

And by the way Christianity is declining in the West. A good number of them are tuturning atheists.

And please, Islam is still the most practised religion in Africa.

Taah... Fallacy.

tintingz:
Your bolded is the most irrational, unreasonable post I've read so far, both religion are even Abrahamic religion, give me reasons i shouldn't leave Islam for another religion?

Please give me reasons, let see how your brain works.

AlBaqir:


# Am happy you did not contest that of Nigeria. However, following are few sources to support my claim that Christianity is Africa's dominated religion:

* www.pulse.ng/religion/here-they-are-top-10-most-popular-religions-in-africa-id3048509.html


* www.cbn.com/cbnnews/world/2010/november/africa-the-most-religious-place-on-earth/?mobile=false

* www.pewforum.org/2015/04/02/sub-saharan-africa/

* https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_in_Africa

Note: Islam is only fast growing in Africa (and of course in the world) and might eventually surpass christianity courtesy of the way we breed. Christianity depends largely on evangelism than Muslim does. Their evangelism is whatever means they could to attract more people to their religion.

Jarus:


Yes, World Book of Encyclopedia is a book of fallacy.

You see why I don't come here again? Here is how low the level of reasoning here has reached since some of us left about 8 years ago.

If you want to leave, that's your business. I have gone past the level of getting worked up over someone leaving Islam. I assumed everyone here has the same level of reasoning with me in identifying basic falsehood.

Empiree:
At least his criticisms spread across the board . That's fair enough

That's it. Why would he. Same allegation was brought up before but did not work.

AlBaqir:


# Then, a deal was stroke between the US and Russia which make Syria destroy its stockpiles (of Chemical weapons). News had it this time that Russia was boycotted this time, even US congress. The Panda just made a straightaway decision.

AlBaqir:


Russia is taking the issue to the Security Council according to new reports.

Trump Finally Order Attack on Syria Government
http://edition.cnn.com/2017/04/06/politics/donald-trump-syria-military/index.html?sr=fbCNN040717donald-trump-syria-military0129AMVODtopLink&linkId=36277343

Things just became very serious in Syria.

While I hate Assad with passion, I do not believe he smoked his own people with the deadly gas. The man is obviously winning the fight over the sponsored ISIS and other terrorists so why would he do such a reckless thing?

# I believe this to be another false signal to invade Syria. We all know the drill as it happened in Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya.

Demmzy15:
No, no, no! Assad didn't, here's what happened:

Rebels fired the stockpiles into their own neighborhood killing their own families and friends, and then gave Russia the coordinates of the hospitals treating the victims to bomb.

That's it, your "anti-americanism" has made you a monster, I see no difference between you and Assad. As long as you support this man, you're capable of being like him.

Demmzy15:


But he killed his own people with barrel bombs and the rest, you attested to the fact he's a monster. So why wouldn't he? He did in 2013 and Russia promised to get rid of the stockpile, yet he went ahead again.

Demmzy15:
No, no, no! Assad didn't, here's what happened:

vedaxcool:


I wish you will just ignore this lying dolts and dishonest people. Em.piree is on record that you must follow a leader no matter what even if he kills your children or starve your children .... the other blatant liar just called assad the devil yet the Unislamic republic of Iran whom he blindly idolizes sponsors and support the devil. It is a pity the average Nigerian uses sentiment in assessing issues that are as clear as light and day.

Empiree:
You didnt disappoint me actually. My only concern was why did they take weapons against their leader to begin with?. So higlhited is not my words but your brothers. They quoted hadith saying "slave obey your master even if he fvcks with you". So since Al-Nusra and all them are "people of sunnah" and Assad did not prevent them from their obligatory duties, why picked weapons against him?. You all can forget too quick the city falluja. You know too well what they did. So now why are you saving face and btw, do you have Assad used the chemicals?

AlBaqir:
^^ Chai! Empiree, it pained me why you reply that Aboki. Best answer for fools is silence.

Empiree:
lol @anti-America. I hope you know trump's move is illegal. Congress already said he needed their approval before sending ground troops. I don't understand how you think. US media already reported people are killed by trump's strikes. This is another Iraq in the making.

Besides, if trump suceed, do the rebels have a clear leader to lead? . To me, I see this as another scheme to cause more troubles.

As someone rightly commented on sheikh's post that if govt doesn't bar you from observing your religious duties what's the point of rebelling against him?
